v2 Chapter 1703: . Become a local tyrant again
Sitting in the dock, Qin Shiou felt that these lawyers had nothing to do, so he was talking about it. We are here to talk about the ownership of the sunken ship. Here are you guys who seized the shipwreck in the early stage?
However, the two parties directly talked about this issue. The Spanish lawyers asked the Canadian court to revoke the pre-litigation seizure order issued earlier and to revoke the qualifications of the manager of the Xiaoyu Deep-sea Shipwreck Salvage Company.
They believe that because the Spanish government has the most obvious historical, cultural and archeological interest in the black axe pirate shipwreck and its appendages, the court should designate the Spanish government as the administrator of the litigation object in this case. Not only that, but the small fish salvage company has to All items that have been salvaged, including gold and silver coins, will be handed over to the Spanish government.
So the wrangling started, where the Supreme Court repeatedly emphasized that the court was not qualified to make a judgment on the ownership of the black axe pirate shipwreck and its appendages and cargo, nor did it have jurisdiction to make judgments. According to the law, the court can only order Xiaoyu Deep-sea Shipwreck Salvage Company to transfer the litigation object to the government instead of transferring ownership.
In fact, there are reasons for the Spanish legal delegation to wrestle like this. The ownership of sunken ships and treasures is not easy to determine. Not all deep-sea sunken ships are warships, and many international seabed cultural relics salvage disputes do not exist under the jurisdiction of the state and its property. With regard to the issue of exemption from rights, the trial of substantive disputes is inevitable.
The disadvantage of Odyssey is that the Mercedes is a warship and belongs to the Spanish government from all angles, even if the government changes.
Black axe pirate ships do not have the right to belong to the country, they were pirates at the beginning. All countries are wanted, otherwise they don't need to go to the freezing Greenland Sea. Spain can't use the suit of suing Osid to deal with Qin Shiou and his party, so they have been slow to enter the subject.
Finally torn apart. The first trial was inconclusive. The trial judge estimated that he was anxious to eat, and finally knocked on the table with a mallet with a gloomy face. The confrontation ended without a problem.
The official Qin stood in the dock with an anxious expression. What the **** is this? Is this the end of the court session? Who on earth does the sunken ship belong to? Lao Tzu is in a hurry to sell these treasures, is there?
The court broke up, the jurors left, and the people who came to watch the trial also left. The media reporters came up and surrounded Qin Shiou and the Spanish gang, spitting out a lot of problems like a gun.
Now, Qin Shiou has experience in handling these. He took out a big sunglasses from his pocket and hung it on his face like a juggling, then waved his hand and said: "Sorry everyone, I am not accepting interviews now. If you have any questions, please ask my lawyer. I am going to be separated."
Auerbach looked at him pretendingly and wanted to go up and smoke him. What does it mean to ask your lawyer? What is there to ask about?
In Qin Shiou's eyes, there was no result in this trial. But in the eyes of master lawyers like Auerbach, they were relieved after they got out of the courtroom. Auerbach said directly: "Let little Blake prepare for the auction. The Spaniards can't win."
Qin Shiou asked strangely: "How did you see it?"
A lawyer smiled and said: “The Spaniards did not directly attack the case itself this time, but questioned the court’s judicial fairness and openness of law enforcement. This shows that they are very dissatisfied with the attitude given by Canadian officials. I bet both parties in this matter The diplomats had communicated in private, and the final result was not satisfactory to the Spaniards."
Qin Shiou asked strangely: "What do you mean? Isn't the case determined by law? What does the private communication of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs mean? Is the justice of the mother just talking?"
The lawyers shrugged, and Auerbach said: "Where is there so much judicial justice? Especially this is an international dispute. The laws of the two countries are different from the international law. How do you decide? You asked me when I started this case. I told you. You can safely salvage Shenbao, because purely from a legal point of view, we are determined, and the only variable lies in the diplomacy between the two countries."
Qin Shiou understands. These trials are actually going through a process. The law in Canada is also very dark.
In fact, we can’t blame the government for manipulating the judiciary. Although Canada claims that their courts strictly adhere to a judicially independent attitude, as a part of the state agency, the courts cannot ignore the realization of the country’s foreign policy goals, nor can they ignore Canada’s diplomatic interests. , Will be more or less affected by international relations or international politics.
Generally speaking, countries with close diplomatic relations with Canada are more likely to obtain favorable judgments in Canadian courts, while countries with more tense diplomatic relations with Canada are more likely to encounter trouble in adjudication.
Of course, in addition to Canada, other countries are the same. As for personal interests? The Constitution of each country stipulates that personal interests need to serve the national interests. After the penalty for the shipwreck of the Mercedes-Benz was over, the vice president of Odyssey and Billy’s brother once complained that “the judgment was completely dictated by politics. Even above the law.” This is the way it is originally. How can the penalties for international disputes be absolutely fair?
Auerbach guessed that the Canadian Ministry of Foreign Affairs definitely wanted to use the black axe sinking ship as a bargaining chip to exchange something for the Spaniards, but the Spaniards did not agree, so the two sides fell apart.
For Canada, once the $2 billion shipwreck treasure is auctioned off, the country can obtain a profit of $800 to 900 million through taxation. This amount of money is not a small amount. Last year, Canada’s national GDP was less than two trillion. U.S. dollars, this time the tax is one-thousandth of the annual GDP!
Understanding this, Qin Shiou shook his head again and again, fucking, whoever tells himself in the future that foreign countries pay attention to judicial justice, he must smoke, he can't live by himself, and the world is generally black with crows.
Auerbach acknowledged this: “It’s impossible for governments at all levels to not want to get a share of high-value bulk items such as shipwreck treasures. However, this cannot mean that the government is a robber. There is a little bias in the penalty process. If it is in some countries in Africa and South America, the shipwreck and salvage belong to the country, and it is called a robber government!"
Qin Shiou said disdainfully: "Fifty steps, a hundred steps?"
Auerbach smiled and said: "You can think so, but this is reality. If you want absolute fairness, then go to God for it. Only in heaven can God bestow all beings with absolute equality."
This is just a joke, and Qin Shiou doesn’t care. Since the court session is over, he will go back and wait for the next court session. There will be a lot of speculation, so that the price of the shipwreck treasure can be raised in the autumn auction. In the end, the treasure still belongs to him! (To be continued~^~)
